American Toys I'm the Lead.

Talking with a prominent toy dealer
he told me that American toys have al
most shut the productions of the French
and Swiss factories out of the market.
Ten years ago nearly all the toys sold in
this country were imported. Now we i'm
port only few French dolls and Swiss
novelties, and export cargoes of our own
manufacture to all parts of the world
Certain houses handle the products of
dozens of factories, taking the entire out
put and jobbing it out TO the retailers.
All the new inventions in toys are of
native origin. Indeed it was this that be-
gan the overthrow of the foreign toy
trade. The conventional and old-fash-
Toned stuff imported had no show in the
market i'll competition with the ingenui-
ties and diverting novelties of our own in
ventOrs. In cases where the inventor re-
served a royalty, he has made handsome
little fortunes by his inventions. Gener-
ally, however, the idea is sold to the man
ufacturer or jobber for a set sum, and
made and marketed at his risk and profit.

How Chewing Areets the Nsrre,.

High medical authority Is responsible
for the statement that in temperate and
cold countries tobacco creates thirst, and
thereby encourages drinking habits; in
tropical chimes it has no such effect on the
smoker, and the taste for alcohol rarely
follows its use in those ATTITUDES. Very
eminent observers have, indeed, attributed
the proverbial sobriety of eastern peoples
to the use of tobacco. There are impor
tant qualifications having reference to the
smoker himself and his surroundings. and
modifying the effects of his indulgence
in such d manner as irresistibly suggest
the old proverb: zone mans food is an
other mans poison"
But, further, the effects vary according
to the method of consumption; and here
we touch a question of great interest,
bearing upon several stimulant narcotics,
and that is the question of chewing. All
solid foods undergo this process in the
mouth, and of our chief products, tobacco,
coca, opium and betel are also chewed.
The act of chewing powerfully affects the
nerves of the mouth, being branches of
the fifth pair of nerves, and in close con-
nection with the brain. While it has long
been understood that certain nerves in
the mouth excite, when stimulated by
food. the pleasureable sensations of taste,
it is a more recent discovery that the
chewing of solids produces through the
fifth nerve certain stimulant impressions
upon the nervous centerS. One of the
consequent efforts is a quickened circula
ton III the brain. What light this throws
upon the habit of chewing the world overt

Facts About the Common noase-f1y.

The house-hy begins to make its appear
ance in July, becomes abundant toward the
end of August, and lives from that time
till killed by cold weather. The eggs are
deposited in the ordure of stables, whose
warmth matches them. The larva matches
from the shell in the form Of a small,
white worm; from this it passes into the
pupa state. The pupa IS larger than the
larva, and is of dark brown color. In
this state the insect remains from eight to
fourteen days, then comes forth the per
feet fly. All flies and mosquitoes grow in
the larva and pupa state, and after they
acquire wings they do not grow any more.
The smaller flies we often see with the
house-fly are not the young of the same
species, but another and smaller kind.
AS all flies apparently perish on the ad-
vent of cold weather, it is difficult to tell
whence come the fresh Swarms with each
recurring summer season, but it is sup,
posed that few do live through the win
ter in sequestered warm spots, and no
doubt some lie dormant in the pupa state
through the cold months. Thus enough
are carried over to begin the work of
propagation in the early spring. This
work proceeds so rapidly that in month
or two little one literally becomes 1000,
and July finds us with our usual crop of
millions of our familiar pests on hand

Ak. Kunuiakea Gets Clear.

In the Police Court yesterday morning
Police Justice Dayton gave his judgment
in the case of Albert X. Kunuiakea,
charged with being gross cheat. From
the evidence it appears that the defend
ant obtained goods to the amount of
1857 from A Kraft, jeweler, King
street He told Mr. Kraft that he had
$500 a month coming in, but this
was found to be an incorrect statement.
Mr.. Cartwright, who has charge OF
Kunuiakea's affairs, gave evidence as to
his income. His Honor, in giving judg-
ment, said he had looked over the evil
dence carefully, and compared it with
the law. While he did not exonerate
the defendant, yet he thought the law
would not hold him. He would there
fore be discharged. Mr.. F. NJ. Hatch
appeared for defendant.
